It happens in threes

When I went to bed last night 2 celebrities had passed:

Sandra Dee (60's singer).  A little before my time, but she's immortalized in the song from Grease "Look At Me I'm Sandra Dee...."
John Raitt, father of Bonnie Raitt. I think I saw him on Broadway in Shenandoah (good musical) in the 1970's with my parents.

This AM, I found an e-mail in my in box about Hunter S. Thompson committing suicide. I'm actually surprised he was still alive.

I remember seeing Bill Murray in Where the Buffalo Roam doing Hunter S. Thompson. I know there is a movie with Johnny Depp of Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas, but I've not seen that. My ex was a big fan of Hunter S. Thompson and I read his copy of Fear and Loathing.

Still odd all 3 passed the same day - no real connection except for their careers being in the 1960's.

DVD Annoyance

I bought Alan the newest Dora dvd as *I* got tired of the same one over and over.
The old dvd started and then there was a choice of previews or main menu. So 2 presses of enter and you are all set.
The new one has previews stuck in front just like a video. Grr.

Alan seems to like it though.

Kicking Habit?

Ok, Alan's developed a habit of kicking me as he lies down next to me when I put him to sleep. I haven't been able to correct him, I either get him upset or he'll laugh. Any ideas how to stop it - he thinks it's fun or funny but he could hurt me.

Weird

I went out today while Mark and Alan were napping.
I stopped at Toys R Us to see if I could find any bargains (no luck).
The whole entire first row by the store was full of SUVs and/or minivans. But one pulled out so I could park my little itty bitty Escort :)
It just seem so sterotypical to see ALL the SUVs in a row at the toy store on a day off school. (Yes, we did have bad weather in NJ today.)
